"Tamsin Winter is fast becoming a favourite for younger teenagers, chronicling those first years at secondary school with warmth and honesty."
- The Observer

Tamsin Winter grew up in a tiny Northamptonshire village where she spent her childhood reading books and writing stories. She studied English Literature and Creative Writing at university, and has taught English at secondary level for many years.

Her award-winning novel, Being Miss Nobody (Usborne Publishing) tells the story of eleven-year-old Rosalind who can't speak. The book tackles themes of bullying, anxiety and social media in a fresh, funny and compelling voice and recently won the Awesome Book Award 2019. Tamsin's second novel, Jemima Small Versus the Universe is a bold, funny, heartwarming novel dealing with big themes of weight-related bullying, body-shaming and, most importantly, learning to be happy with who you are. It was Children's Book of the Month in The Guardian and has recently been shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2020.
